Digital Desk: Since making his Test debut against the West Indies in July 2023, Yashasvi Jaiswal has become the talk of the town. The young player lit up the stage in the current Test series against England after smashing 171 on his debut against the Windies.
In the third Test in Rajkot, which India won by a record 434 runs, Jaiswal broke a number of records. In just 55 days, he has already surpassed Virender Sehwag's all-time record.
Thus far, Jaiswal's 2024 has been noteworthy. So far, he has struck out seven innings with 618 runs scored, including 23 sixes. In just 55 days in 2024, he shattered Sehwag's record for the most sixes hit by an Indian in a calendar year. In 2008, Sehwag struck 22 sixes in 27 innings, while in just 55 days in 2024, Jaiswal has already smashed 23 in nine innings.
